 This television show follows two sisters, Tammy and Amy Slaton, on their weight loss journey. So, if you are on a weight loss journey yourself, seeing these two women go through a similar situation could really motivate you to keep on pushing. 

In the most recent season, season four, starts out with Tammy going to rehab because she hit her highest weight. Her highest weight being 665 pounds. While Tammy is at rehab trying to lose weight, Amy finds out that she’s pregnant with baby number two. Since Amy is still morbidly obese, it is very risky for her to be having another child. Thankfully, both Amy and her new baby were perfectly healthy after birth. Sadly, after the birth of her second son her relationship with her husband starts to go downhill.This season also focuses on Tammy being cleared to have weight loss surgery. She then has weight loss surgery and everything goes very well. The camera crew and producers do a great job of showing how much the rest of the family cares about Amy and Tammy. The family members are with them through everything and are always there for support and guidance. It’s honestly very beautiful how much their family supports them and loves them. 

The Slaton sisters started doing youtube videos for fun and got the attention of TLC producers. Originally, the sisters were going to be on the shoe Family by the Ton. However, once TLC producers watched more of their youtube videos, they realized the family could have their own show. 

The only slightly negative thing I can say about this show is that Tammy can be annoying sometimes. She sort of seems like she wants everything to be about herself when in reality the show isn’t just about her, it’s about both of them. Besides her being annoying sometimes, the show is a very enjoyable watch. 

Overall, this show is very uplifting and encouraging. It is also very funny from all the jokes the family makes. They are normally very silly jokes that shouldn’t be funny but are for some reason, but either way you laugh. This show is definitely worth watching.
